Sustainability
Building a better future
Our sustainability strategy takes a holistic approach across three core pillars.
We’ve set objectives and targets against each pillar to drive meaningful sustainable outcomes and systemic change across our business, residents, supply chain, investors, and in turn, wider society.
This is an opportunity to return economic, environmental, and social value and we are committed to drive the systematic change and collaboration that is so urgently needed.
As we achieve the targets we’ve set, we’ll continue to stretch ourselves with new ones keeping our business, internal team, and the supply chain at the forefront of leading industry action.


We’re resolute in our intent to make a real and lasting positive difference. We’re determined that this is not simply seen as rhetoric. Our words are being followed by very clear actions that will allow us to realise those ambitions.Will Bax Chief Executive

We need to be ahead of the game and make a serious contribution to reducing climate change right now. If everyone plays their part, no matter how small, we can be secure in the knowledge that not only have we started to make a real difference in the way we live, but we are also ensuring that the next generation can look forward to a positive future.Tim Seddon Executive Director Developement
